purchasing a flamenco guitar
|
|
|
Greetings! First of all, I'm new to the forum and want to introduce myself. I've been playing guitar for about 4 years, but only recently came to flamenco about 5-6 months ago. I've bought several of the instructional DVDs and recently found a great teacher; although I've been commuting from Madison,WI to Milwaukee for lessons. In short, I love it, and I'm soon ready to purchase a flamenco guitar. I've been learning on a classical and think it's time to experience the benefits of lower action and more flamenco tone. I'm sure many questions have already been asked about purchasing guitars, so if there are specific threads anyone could refer me to, that would be great. Either way, I'd really appreciate some advice on how to find a decent guitar. I have up to $2000 to spend and think I'd like to go with a flamenco blanca since my classical is cedar and already has a warm tone. I've looked in the guitar stores in town and only saw one flamenco guitar that I liked, an Aria. I have a feeling I can find something nicer, however, but I don't know where to start. Do most people have to order flamenco guitars? Or does anyone happen to know of any stores to look in in the south central Wisconsin area? Are there any luthiers that have very solid reputations that I should look into? Thanks so much for any advice! Alexandra
